Chapter 691 - 661: God Creation Plan

A smile appeared on Chen Yushi’s face when he heard Zuo Wenyao mention the God Creation Plan.

"You can rest assured on that front. The plan is proceeding exceptionally well. As of ten minutes ago, fifty-one members of the God Creation Plan have successfully broken through to the Early Stage of the Divine Demon Realm," Chen Yushi said.

"That many?" Now it was Zuo Wenyao’s turn to be stunned.

Since he wasn’t part of the military, it was difficult for him to get real-time intelligence, even though he was authorized to know about the plan.

He had only received one update at 6:00 PM. At that time, out of the 200 members at the Peak of the Body Shaping Realm participating in the God Creation Plan, only thirteen had successfully broken through to the Divine Demon Realm.

That might sound like a lot of people, but in reality, it was far from enough to handle this war.

After all, they were facing Fourth Level Mutated Zombies. Even with a Heaven-defying Secret Technique like Life-Sacrificing First Level and the aid of high-tech weapons allowing them to gain the upper hand, this was still a war. Sacrifices were inevitable.

From the time the Abyssal Passage erupted to the present, the number of Divine Demon Realm experts who had been sacrificed had already reached fifteen.

The number of wounded was even greater. Almost half of them had been injured, many of them seriously.

Fortunately, modern medicine was advanced enough, and with Medical-type Superpower Users like Liu Miaomiao present, many Divine Demon Realm experts could quickly rejoin the fight.

Even so, many held a rather pessimistic view about whether they could continue to hold out.

Ultimately, their top-tier forces were too few and too difficult to produce. Even with the God Creation Plan, the rate at which their top experts were dying surpassed the rate at which new ones were being created.

So now, upon suddenly hearing the latest update on the God Creation Plan, how could Zuo Wenyao not be stunned? Of course, his shock was quickly followed by elation.

"This isn’t a lot at all," Chen Yushi said, shaking his head. "You have to understand, the two hundred people participating in the God Creation Plan were selected from all over the country. Every single one of them has the potential to break through to the Divine Demon Realm."

"During the day, we didn’t harvest that many Blood Bags. Even by supplying all of them, we could only get these people to the Middle Stage of the Marrow Tempering Realm. But even then, thirteen people broke through."

"Now that it’s night, the number of Blood Bags has skyrocketed, so their Cultivation progress has naturally accelerated. Around 9:00 PM, they began breaking through to the Late Stage of the Marrow Tempering Realm one after another. Then, over a hundred of them attempted the next breakthrough, and nearly forty succeeded."

"Of course, that’s not the limit. Give us about two more hours, and we should be able to get all two hundred members of the God Creation Plan to the Peak of the Marrow Tempering Realm. According to the estimates from the staff department, the number of experts breaking through to the Divine Demon Realm should reach one hundred by then."

"Once we reach that target, we can turn the tables on the current situation and completely stabilize it."

"If that happens, the objective we initially set will be victoriously accomplished. This eleventh Abyssal Passage will become a completely open, frontline battlefield," Chen Yushi said, his gaze filled with anticipation.

The significance of this step for humanity was absolutely immense.

After all, humanity’s previous stance toward the Abyssal Plane had been to seal it off completely.

If they ever wanted to launch a counter-offensive, lifting the blockade was the first step.

Collecting the corpses of Abyssal Creatures to refine higher-level Biological Alloys would be the second. When the conditions were right, they could even dispatch elite teams deep into the Abyssal Plane.

Zuo Wenyao’s heart pounded with excitement as he heard this.

However, when his gaze shifted to the green, toxic mist in the distance, the worry in his heart inevitably resurfaced.

To continue with the plan, they only needed to place all the elites of the next generation in the designated target areas, according to the enemy’s plan.

If they ordered all the students to retreat now, Zuo Wenyao believed the forces of the Abyssal Plane would either launch an immediate attack or cancel their plan entirely.

But either way, they would no longer have access to something as valuable as the Blood Bags.

To put it bluntly, this was a gamble.

In the end, it would come down to who was better prepared.

...

Students like Lin Xinghai were completely unaware of what preparations the Military Department had made. Of course, Lin Xinghai didn’t have the time to concern himself with such things anyway.

Right now, he was focused on only one thing: the maximum limit of Blood Qi Power his internal organs could store.

It had increased by 4,800 points in the previous two hours, and now it was still soaring at a rate of 40 points per minute.

Therefore, after a mere seventeen minutes, the Blood Qi Power contained in each of Lin Xinghai’s organs approached the average upper limit of 500 points.

’Let’s see if anything changes!’ Lin Xinghai muttered, placing the two Blood Bags in his hand into his mouth.

As the Blood Qi Power was rapidly absorbed, he could feel it constantly rising in his eleven internal organs, and soon, they all reached 500 points.

"Huh! Nothing changed." Surprise appeared on Lin Xinghai’s face, but it was overshadowed by joy.

This meant he was different from ordinary people; he could store even more Blood Qi Power.

With 11 organs, and each now holding an additional 500 points, his total Blood Qi Power had increased by 5,500 points. Adding this to his original 3,833 points, his total Blood Qi Power had reached 9,333 points.

Looking at the numbers displayed on his system panel, Lin Xinghai’s heart pounded with excitement.

’That’s almost 10,000 points of Blood Qi Power!’

After all, the total Blood Qi Power for the Body Shaping Realm was only between 2,000 and 10,000 points.

In other words, his current total Blood Qi Power was comparable to someone at the Peak of the Body Shaping Realm.

Of course, this referred to the old standard for the Peak of the Body Shaping Realm. If those individuals had recultivated the Marrow Tempering Realm, it would be a different story.

Still, this undeniably gave Lin Xinghai a massive boost in confidence. After all, while the Martial Arts that accompanied his Thunder Divine Body were immensely powerful, their energy consumption was equally terrifying.

Lin Xinghai allowed himself only a moment to marvel at his progress before quickly closing the panel and continuing to absorb Blood Bags, racing against the clock.

Soon, another twenty minutes had passed, and a new wave of excitement washed over Lin Xinghai.

His total Blood Qi Power was about to reach 10,000 points.

He knew that for every 1,000-point increase in his total Blood Qi Power, his Perception Range expanded by 100 meters. He was certain that breaking the 10,000-point threshold would be no exception, and perhaps the increase would be even greater.

Lin Xinghai eagerly absorbed another Blood Bag. As his Blood Qi Power broke through the 10,000-point mark, a jolt shot through his mind. He then felt his Perception Power surge outwards like a bursting dam, expanding rapidly.

His Perception Range had originally been 6,000 meters. As his Blood Qi Power increased, his range expanded by 100 meters for every 1,000-point milestone he crossed. Thus, his Perception Range had reached 6,600 meters.

But this time, when the expansion finally stopped, Lin Xinghai was stunned to discover his Perception Range had reached a terrifying 7,600 meters.
